Interesting facts

Montana is a 2014 British action film directed by Mo Ali set in the East End of London starring McKell David as the title character in his first lead role in a feature film. He has since been in the TV series Holby City as Lloyd Kramer. The score was composed by Toydrum.

Production

Shooting of the film took six weeks on locations all over London, including Hackney, Poplar, Brick Lane, Whitechapel, Greenwich, during February and March 2013.

On casting of McKell David, director Mo Ali said: "From the first time I met McKell David, I knew I'd found my Montana."

Review from Independent reads: "Director Mo Ali has an obvious flair for action – but little instinct for story or characterisation. At times, his new film plays like an episode of Grange Hill, as if directed by Quentin Tarantino."
